   hi, i'm trying to do the following - add something above the index loop, but it's not working. It works if I change thematic_above_indexloop to something like thematic_belowheader but that's not where I want it. Any idea whats going on?

   function childtheme_welcome_blurb() {

   if (is_home() || is_front_page()) {

   include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/unpointzero-slider/Slider.php');

   }

   }

   // Now we add our new function to our Thematic Action Hook
   add_action('thematic_above_indexloop','childtheme_welcome_blurb',2);

   function show_single_post() {

   if (is_home() || is_front_page()) {

   include (ABSPATH . '/wp-content/plugins/unpointzero-slider/Slider.php');
   ?>agsdgsdasdgsdgsdg <?php
   }

   }

   // Now we add our new function to our Thematic Action Hook
   add_action('thematic_abovecontainer', 'show_single_post',2);

   this works- but it puts the stuff in the wrong plac.e

   Hum, code looks good to me.

   What I would suggest, to start with delete the code and re write it, just to make sure there was no typos. I've had that before, and you just don't see them.

   Failing that, break each level of function down untill you can assign blame on a function. make sure the logic flow is as you expect. The way I normally do this is by adding the line
   

   echo "ding";exit;

   where I expecting the following code to be executed.

   I'm not sure if this really helps you or no. It's either a fairly simple problem, or something quite complex, is what I would have to guess.

   I'm new to this child theme game, so I might be way off, but hopefully something I've said can help.
